DESCRIPTION

Wayfarer is our first ever unfined cask ale, and one whose cloudiness gave it a distinct juiciness. Very soft on the pallet this one. Wheaty and smooth.

Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 13th December 2016. Hazy yellow-gold with off-white part lacing foam. Caramel malt and citrus in aroma. Rich and intense fruitiness in-mouth, with apricot, strong biscuit and nutty malts. Bitter peel and nutty malts in a great finish. A lot of body and an engaging texture. Perhaps not to everybody’s taste but I absolutely loved it!

Pretty heavy wheat profile but juicy hops balance it out a bit.

Cask at Simon the Tanner. Very hazy gold beer, patchy white head. Light palate, low carbonation. Thin malts. Nice lemon and lime brightness over a light floralness. Very mild wheat character. Shame about the condition but a nice beer.
